If Cloverfield attacked...

Where would you go if Cloverfield attacked your city? I watched the movie again today and I thought that people in Chicago would be in a lot more trouble because the majority of our trains are above ground. This is also a good topic for travelers so they can know what secret safety zones exist in a less familiar city. Haha. I think I would...

A. Run up north to the Green Mill. I could eat food from the restaurant and hide safely in the tunnels underneath built in the prohibition days by Al Capone.

B. If it's Sunday, I'm going to be too lazy to go all that way, so I'd probably just walk to Lake Michigan. If I'm going to go out, I at least want to have a good view.

I wouldn't do anything stupid. Unless you were right underneath the monster, the best thing to do is the only thing...run at right angles. It was too stupid to target individuals. It was just going in random directions.

If the main characters had left the city like they were supposed to, there would have been no "point of view" story.
